Bundt

I finally used the pan I got for Christmas and made my first bundt cake! I think bundt cakes are good presentations for boxed mixes and this one turned out beautifully.

There is now a cake plate in the house, to aid in cake presentation:

I wanted to dust it in confectioner's sugar, perhaps in a pattern, too offset the dark chocolate color simply and elegantly. (Well, as elegantly as something called a bundt can be.)

However, someone decided that the chocolate cake should be covered, not in chocolate or vanilla frosting, but "drizzled" with melted chocolate. And by drizzled, I mean, "dumped on." I don't have a picture of the result, but I will admit that there were a few angry tears shed over having to bring my Wet Dog Turd over to a friend's house.

Luckily, yelling "Boooooondt" a few dozen times, a la My Big, Fat, Greek Wedding, cheered me up a bit. Oh, and yes, it tasted just fine.
